Zhabotynsky Saint Onuphrius Monastery

Temple , Architecture

Zhabotynsky Saint Onuphrius Monastery is located in the Vitryana Gora tract to the east of the center of Chubivka village.

It was founded no later than 1706, as it is mentioned in documents as already existing in this year. The first temples were wooden (not preserved). In 1812, a stone church was built in the name of Saint Onuphrius the Great.

In 1767-1768, Maksym Zaliznyak, the future leader of Koliyivshchyna, was a novice in the monastery.

Two miraculous icons have been preserved: the Dormition of the Mother of God and the venerable Onuphrius the Great.

In the 1920s, the Zhabotynsky Monasterywas closed, but was revived in the early 1990s.

In addition to the stone Onuphrius church, there is a cave temple, cells and a network of underground passages, which are partially explored, but closed due to a state of emergency. According to legend, an underground passage connects the Zhabotynsky Monastery with the Motronynsky Monastery in Kholodny Yar, which is 8 kilometers from here.

Zhabotynsky Saint Onuphrius Monastery belongs to the Moscow Patriarchate.
